About

Authenticator

Authenticator keeps everything a login needs in one private place: your 2FA codes and your passwords, organized into Codes and Passwords tabs, with backup codes on the same card as the account they belong to. Most of us juggle a separate authenticator app, passwords scattered across notes, and recovery codes buried in screenshots. Authenticator brings them together. Add an account once and its verification code, password, and backup codes live together. Add a credential for a service you already have and Authenticator offers to merge it, so everything about one login stays in one place. PRIVATE BY DESIGN - Optional app lock: protect the vault with Face ID and/or a 6-digit passcode — your choice. - Nothing leaves your iPhone. No account to create, no company server. Your secrets live in your device's Keychain and, if you turn it on, your own iCloud Keychain. - Copied codes clear from the clipboard automatically. BUILT FOR EVERYDAY LOGINS - Live 2FA codes with a ring that drains over each 30-second window. - Add by scanning a QR code or by entering details yourself. - Passwords with tap-to-reveal and one-tap copy. - Backup codes you can mark as used, so you always know which are left. - Search and pin the accounts you reach for most. FAIR BY DEFAULT Viewing, revealing, and copying what you have is always free — your data is never held hostage. Authenticator Pro is an optional subscription that adds unlimited accounts, iCloud Keychain sync across your devices, and encrypted export (file or paper backup). Weekly, monthly, and yearly plans are available. Authenticator stores, shows, reveals, and copies your logins on iPhone. It does not autofill into other apps.
